CELTIC manager Gordon Strachan hailed his side’s attitude and commitment following their dramatic late Champions League victory over AC Milan in Glasgow.

Scott McDonald pounced when Milan keeper Dida – who was attacked by a Celtic fan – parried a Gary Caldwell drive from the edge of the box after a Kaka penalty had cancelled out Stephen McManus’ opener.

“It’s been a good night,” Strachan said.

“Our footballers won the game for us, but not through football. Because they are playing the European champions, they cannot play exactly as they would like to.

“What they did when they gave the ball away and it didn’t come off for them was they became good defenders.”
